Title:Ecoprinted pink silk blouse
Date:Jul 2021
Original Size: fits 36 inch chest
Notes: Upcycled silk blouse. Originally cream with some pink and blue silk embroidery added. It had got slightly stained, so I decided to overdye it. Mordanted with alum, then dipped in madder, printed with Japene maple, cotinus, strawberry leaves and gingko, with an iron blanket. This looked better when it was first done, but some of the colour has washed out
